Grilled Cheese for Grown Ups!

Grilled cheese for grown ups -200 calories

Grilled cheese sandwiches were always a favorite comfort food growing up. Always homemade, they were my favorite. My daughter loves them as well but I can't always bring myself to have just cheese, and especially just Velveeta at that. While cheese isn't the "cleanest" food, moderation is key and there are always some alternatives.
With every meal I try to keep the nutrients plentiful and the taste flavorful! 
So ditch the Velveeta and give these grown up sandwiches a try!



Here is my favorite recipe but feel free to modify!

  • Whole wheat flat bread - 100 calories
  • Avocado spread on one side- 20 calories
  • Laughing cow swiss cream cheese (1/2 triangle) - 15 calories
  • Tomatoes (3 cherry halves)  - 5 calories
  • Onion - 7 calories
  • Spinach - 6 calories
  • Feta cheese crumbled- 47 calories
  • Grilled on a Foreman
